Head coach Dennis Allen told reporters Wednesday that Lattimore (ankle) will be on the Saints' roster in 2024, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lattimore missed the final seven games of the Saints' 2023 campaign due to an ankle injury, but it now seems as if he's been able to move past the issue. The four-time Pro Bowl cornerback has been in trade rumors as of late, but after Allen's "positive conversation" with Lattimore regarding those rumors, he's expected to remain in New Orleans in 2024. Lattimore will presumably be the Saints' top cornerback once again next season, playing alongside Paulson Adebo and 2024 second-round pick Kool-Aid McKinstry.

Lattimore (ankle) appeared in 10 games during the 2023 regular season, totaling 48 tackles and eight passes defended, including one interception.

EDGE Analysis

Lattimore missed the final seven games of the year while on IR with an ankle issue, and he's now appeared in 17 games across the last two regular seasons. The four-time Pro Bowler still finished fifth on the Saints in passes defended, though he came just short of tallying double-digit passes defended for the sixth time in his seven-year career.

Head coach Dennis Allen was noncommittal about Lattimore (ankle), and it seems as if he won't return to practice this week, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lattimore has missed the Saints' last five games with this ankle issue and it still seems as if he won't be returning to the field just yet. New Orleans is unlikely to open the Pro Bowl cornerback's 21-day practice window this week, so he'll have to wait until Week 18 to potentially make his return. The Saints are expected to continue rolling with Alontae Taylor, Paulson Adebo and Isaac Yiadom while Lattimore recovers from his ankle injury.

Coach Dennis Allen said Monday that he doesn't expect Lattimore (ankle) to be designated for return from the injured reserve list ahead of Week 16, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

EDGE Analysis

His coach's comments would suggest that in all likelihood, Lattimore will sit out his fifth straight game Thursday. Isaac Yiadom will probably continue to see increased playing time in the meantime.

The Saints placed Lattimore (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Per John Hendrix of SI.com on Monday, head coach Dennis Allen told reporters that the high ankle sprain Lattimore sustained in Week 10 was "going to take some time" to heal. He'll now be forced to miss at least the next four games and will be eligible to return Dec. 21 against the Rams on Thursday Night Football. Alontae Taylor should slide in as the starting cornerback alongside Paulson Adebo.

Lattimore (ankle) has been ruled out of Sunday's contest against the Falcons.

EDGE Analysis

Lattimore sustained a high-ankle sprain in Week 10 against the Vikings. Despite the Week 11 bye, he wasn't able to participate in any practice leading up to Sunday's contest and will not suit up. In Lattimore's absence, Alontae Taylor should step in as the starting cornerback alongside Paulson Adebo, while Isaac Yiadom and Cameron Dantzler are candidates to fill in at the slot corner position.

Lattimore is still recovering from a high-ankle sprain suffered in a Week 10 loss to the Vikings and he has an injury that is "going to take some time," according to a statement made by head coach Dennis Allen on Monday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Although the Saints' Week 11 bye kept Lattimore from missing a game and provided him more time to recover, it sounds like the Ohio State product may be questionable at best for the team's Week 12 return to the field against Atlanta. His status for Sunday should become clearer as the week progresses and the Saints release their first injury report.

Lattimore suffered a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to Minnesota, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Considering Lattimore was carted into the locker room Sunday, and head coach Dennis Allen called the injury "fairly significant," according to Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com, the news could be worse for the 27-year-old. However, he's still potentially facing a multi-game absence, and Rapoport stated he is considered week-to-week. Although the Saints are now headed into a bye and will not return to the field until Nov. 26 against the Falcons, which will mitigate the number of games, if any, Lattimore will likely miss.

Coach Dennis Allen said Monday that the ankle injury Lattimore sustained during Sunday's loss at Minnesota is "fairly significant," Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

If there's a silver lining for Lattimore, it's that it doesn't seem like the ankle issue will be season-ending. New Orleans' practice reports this week will give more clues as to the severity of the injury.

The Saints believe that Lattimore sustained a sprained ankle in Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Vikings, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lattimore was carted off to the locker room after initially getting looked at in the medical tent. The MRI on Monday will provide more clarity on the severity of the sprain. If it's a minor sprain, Lattimore will have the benefit of a Week 11 bye to rest and recover, and would aim to be available for Week 12 against the Falcons on Nov. 26.
